Podcastrr - Solution to 500 Internal Server Error

Problem

The application was returning a 500 Internal Server Error when accessing the root URL. This was likely due to the database not being properly initialized with the required tables.

Solution

Created all necessary templates and CSS files for the application
Created a database initialization script (init_db.py) to create the required tables and default settings
Ran the initialization script to set up the database

How to Run the Application

Make sure you have all the dependencies installed:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Initialize the database (if you haven't already):
```
python init_db.py
```
Run the application:
```
python main.py
```
Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:5000

What to Expect

You should now see the home page of the Podcastrr application instead of a 500 Internal Server Error. The application allows you to:

Search for podcasts
Track podcasts
Download podcast episodes
Configure download settings

Troubleshooting

If you still encounter issues:

Check that the database file (instance/podcastrr.db) exists and is not empty
Verify that all required templates are in the templates directory
Ensure that the CSS file is in the static/css directory
Check the application logs for specific error messages
